The term island hopping was used during WWII when the US and its allied forces were going from island to island trying to regain and push out the Japanese forces in the islands from Guam, Tarawa, Guadalcanal, Palua, and others, including Okinawa. Most of the tiny atolls were bombed, however, the only way to take over them was to land forces and literally flush out the Japanese soldiers by fire. Chuuk in Micronesia was believed to be very difficult to land troops and it would take a great amount of forces to land, so the US and its allies blockaded the entire lagoon, starving the Japanese. That is one of the island hopping terms I have heard. Marine are notorious for these beach landings, many of their hero's were made in the island hopping campaign. <span />

With the signing of the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 and the end of World War I (WWI) the previous year, Germany was not only held almost entirely responsible for the war, but the country was required to pay reparations for the damages in Europe. The treaty also required that Germany hand over quite a bit of land and territory to surrounding countries. German citizens were angry, became desperate for relief and were disillusioned of the promises that the current government was trying to sell them. An alternative was needed, and it came in the form of fascism.
